Southampton legend Le Tissier blasts Liverpool pair Lovren, Lallana

The manner in which Lovren left the club, claiming his head was already in Liverpool, and Lallana agitated for his move by saying he would not play for the club again, has angered Saints legend Le Tissier.

"It's not great when chief players at the club threaten to go on strike and don't want to be there," he told the Daily Express.

"It's a sad indictment on a couple of players who left after throwing their toys out of the pram."
